Sarada and Boruto have absolutely no flaws.

Thankfully Kawaki will arrive and Boruto is destined to lose everything.


I guess Sarada will still solo I guess and be as interesting as a bag of rice. I don't think she even has a goal to overcome other than be Hokage when none of the new gen even wants to be in that position.

Boruto has plenty of flaws. He is actually like one of those boys on a sitcom (like Boy meets world) that always has to learn a life lesson.

First, he has no drive or motivation (academy days/graduation arc)

Then there's the whole "I hate the hokage, why can't dad come home" issue that he had with Naruto.

Then there was his issue of taking short cuts and not wanting to work hard, which ultimately led to the kote fiasco.

Then there was the whole "technology is neither good nor bad, it's how you use it" lesson that Kodachi spent about 3 chapters drilling into Boruto's head.

All of this is on top of the dark fate that Boruto is supposed to have.

Boruto is far from a flawless character.

Sarada doesn't have flaws..:|

The only pure Stu is Mitsuki and Boruto is 95% Stu.
What flaws does Sarada really have? She had potential for flaws and issues, but Gaiden pretty much oneshotted her issues like Sarada oneshotted that girl from the cloud village.

She doesn't have any glaring outstanding character flaws.
She's not weak.
She's not stupid.
She has no particular rivals or enemies. Nobody hates her and she has no known grudges against anyone else.
No internal conflicts. She is over her father issues.

Etc...

At this point, Sarada is just a rising shinobi who is just doing her job.

Please bro the story doesn't focus on her so she's not going to get screen time or the complexities of her character won't ever get explored.

You're pretty much describing Boruto here and ignoring the fact that the story doesn't focus on anybody save him.

Boruto has enough for flaws to carry the series, tackling them each arc. Although they would probably run out, and it wouldn't be good on the series, since he doesn't constitute half of the fanbase or a third (most fans are carry-overs from Naruto).

Sarada isn't a bit as flawed as Boruto, but that may be because she doesn't get sufficient screen-time, all due to a certain character. Same as Mitsuki, he lacks actual screen-time for his flaws to come onto the surface. Apart from the plight of being reduced to an ingragiator whose sole purpose surrounds the aforementioned certain character.

All in all, most of these flaws Sarada and Mitsuki even have are a by-product of the certain character and the certain character alone has enough flaws to spread around. He embodies flaw itself.

I listed Boruto's flaws in an above post. He actually has many of them and is probably bound to show many more as time goes on.

The closest thing to being a stu that Boruto has going for him is his power.

Even then, he has still taken so many L's it is ridiculous. Why do you think he had to cheat all throughout the chunin exams? Let's review Boruto's L's:

He was useless in the tar pit part of the chunin exams.

He basically lost against those triplets in the capture the flag part of the exam and he had to use the kote.

He needed to cheat against Yurui.

Shikadai had him beat.

Shinki will probably have him beat (but he'll use the kote).

Sarada beat both him and Mitsuki in the spar.

Etc...

Long story short:

Boruto always has moral lessons to learn, character flaws to iron out, and he is not so overwhelmingly strong.

Sarada being a genius makes sense because her parents are two of the most perfect , skilled, and intellegence ninja, and complement each other. Saradas flawlessness is a prouduct of sasusaku love and bond. It was kinda the premise of Naruto Gaiden, think about it, Sarada is wondering what it is to be a ninja , she is told by others how good she is and lucky to be a Uchiha and how easy things are for them, she forgets her mother, pretty much reject her and embrasses her full Uchihaness to find her father, shit happens because she is a Uchiha, her mother is captured, she remembers her mother is strong too she just isn’t Uchiha she is also Shanaroo, she solos will both sharingan and super chakra control hulk strength, and is told that she’s is the way she is because of them and their love. But it pretty much confirmed Sarada powerfulness

It’s because there parents where flawless as ninja, they’re only problems are emotions and their parents history and burdens.

Boruto has plenty of flaws. He is actually like one of those boys on a sitcom (like Boy meets world) that always has to learn a life lesson.

First, he has no drive or motivation (academy days/graduation arc)
Why would he have drive or motivation when he's already a prodigy? Where's the character flaw in that, everything comes easy to him even during the written exam he passed it without cheating. What life lesson is he teaching there? When you're a concoction of bad writing you can do anything.


Then there's the whole "I hate the hokage, why can't dad come home" issue that he had with Naruto.

Then there was his issue of taking short cuts and not wanting to work hard, which ultimately led to the kote fiasco.
Both a result of daddy issues and attention seeking he overcame that within a short span of time. That's not really a character flaw dad's ignoring me let's get his attention and respect. He was also doing it for his sister who his father let down I don't see that as a character flaw.

Then there was the whole "technology is neither good nor bad, it's how you use it" lesson that Kodachi spent about 3 chapters drilling into Boruto's head.

All of this is on top of the dark fate that Boruto is supposed to have.

Boruto is far from a flawless character.
Boruto held an opinion on technology based upon previous experience I'd hardly call that a character flaw. There's no such thing as a wrong or right opinion.

I listed Boruto's flaws in an above post. He actually has many of them and is probably bound to show many more as time goes on.
Addressed above

The closest thing to being a stu that Boruto has going for him is his power.

Even then, he has still taken so many L's it is ridiculous. Why do you think he had to cheat all throughout the chunin exams? Let's review Boruto's L's:

He was useless in the tar pit part of the chunin exams.

He basically lost against those triplets in the capture the flag part of the exam and he had to use the kote.

He needed to cheat against Yurui.

Shikadai had him beat.

Shinki will probably have him beat (but he'll use the kote).

Sarada beat both him and Mitsuki in the spar.

Etc...
None of these loses mean anything since they're mostly sitation dependant. The actual loses that matter are against actual enemies.

Boruto beat an S rank criminal while being a genin and had unlimited Stamina.

Boruto singlehandedly negged the mujina bandits on two seperate occasions.

Boruto gained unlimited chakra, intelligence, outsmarted a former Hunter nin, Mizukage advisor and a Kara outer while still being a genin and handed him an L. Something not even his Jonin sensei and team mates could do they were forced to stand and watch.


Long story short:

Boruto always has moral lessons to learn, character flaws to iron out, and he is not so overwhelmingly strong.
Boruto's not teaching us any life lessons except that he's a badly thought out and written character.

It goes back to my original point this is a Boruto centric story Dattebasa and nobody else save him will be explored. Their character, journey and all else will revolve around him and his journey. Their character complexities and issues aren't worth the time of day unless they're related to him so in contrast they'll seem perfect.

Sarada is a boring azz character. She needs to have longer hair, no glasses, less slutty outfits. Her character needs a better goal.

Why are they obssessed with character's having flaws? What's wrong with a flawless character. If anything, the character just has to be interesting, Sarada is just that. Problem being Boruto has no flaws yet isn't even remotely interesting. He's like a copy-cat of Minato except with no FTG. Sarada isnt that. She has a wide arsenal and her powers make sense/we've something to look forward to, Boruto doesnt fit that criteria.
